Rogue Territory Stanton (Fall 2011)
Today I spoke with Karl Thoennessen, the man behind Rogue Territory Denim Goods about his just released (8.30.11) Stanton jeans, and anything else he had coming this fall. (Spoiler: We will finally get our hands on the Dark Stantons!)

Longboarding – Loaded
I live in the midwest where we have zero waves, but a shit ton of concrete. So while I can’t surf anymore I can definitely grab a longboard and carve up the streets and hills around me. I wish longboarding existed when I was in college, as it’s a far better form of campus transportation...
Paul Smith Jeans Grey Hooded Sweatshirt
I’ve always wanted a go-to grey sweatshirt. That one that’s been in your closet forever, isn’t too sloppy but fits perfectly. Just warm enough to wear in spring, but not really a “jacket”. I bought one from the Gap once. It sucked ass, shrunk funny, and always managed to look sloppy. I bought one from...
Moscot Eyeglasses
Moscot has been producing dark acrylic frames so long that they once sold them from a pushcart on the streets of New York. (This is quite unlike today, where the stuff you buy from a pushcart are things like Gucki or Cooch – knock-off purses made in China.) So a few years ago when I...
Dribbble
I vacillate between loving the idea (I’m both a designer and basketball lover) and feeling bitterly excluded like I can’t get into a special hipster design frat. To be clear, I haven’t applied to be “drafted” into the dribbble community – so when I say bitterly excluded it’s really a self-inflicted wound, but a bitter...
Rogue Territory Jeans – Staton (6 Month Update)
Sometimes you find something that not a lot of people know about and realize you’ve stumbled onto something special. For me, Rogue Territory was that thing. I was a year into a pair of APC New Standards, and 3 months into a pair of Pure Blue Japan XX-005, when I decided I wanted something a...
Paul Smith Jeans Bobby Bag
My trip to London was amazing. Not only did I LOVE the city and avoid 2 major snow storms, I found the worlds best shopping at Selfridges department store and at all the shops at Carnaby Circus. I could have spent two days just shopping for denim in Selfridges – Evisu, Edwin, APC, Dior, Paul...
Rogue Territory Jeans are Expletive Awesome
See! How awesome are these! I feel like obsessions are much like addictions. I’m obsessed with raw, selvage jeans and that obsession started with boredom, followed by curiosity, which led to a gateway drug (The New Standard from APC Jeans.) New obsessions are like Alice In Wonderland, you never know how deep the hole will...
APC Jeans
APC Jeans Yes, THE jeans. APC jeans are magic. They require commitment. A new pair of APC New Standards comes to you hard, unwashed, stiff and TIGHT. You are supposed to order them 2 sizes down from your normal size. You are supposed to wear them for 6-12 months without washing them. You are supposed...
Back Soon
Well friends, my site got flushed. Erased. Caput. I made one damn mistake and the whole thing was shit. Sorry. The good news – Google caches shit for a while, so I was able to retrieve most of my posts. The better news – I was redesigning the damn thing anyway. In the end, I...
